The Selfish Giant Summary Class 8 English (It so Happened) Chapter 3

Summary: 

The Giant’s garden was very beautiful. Children loved to play in it. Every afternoon, as they were coming from school, they used to enter the large lovely garden with flowers and peach-trees.
But the Giant was selfish. One day when he returned home after seven years of ‘ stay with his friend, he saw the children playing in the garden. He shouted at them
angrily and they ran away. The Giant decided not to allow anybody else to play there. So he built a high boundary wall around it. He also put up a notice that outsiders entering the garden will be punished.
The poor children had no other place to go. They didn’t like to play on the dusty road full of stones.
Then the spring came all over the country. Only in the garden of the selfish Giant it was still winter. No flowers bloomed and no birds sang. The only visitors were the snow and the frost which painted all the trees silver. The north wind roared there all day. It also asked the hailstones to come.
The Giant wondered why the spring passed by his garden. It was always winter there.
